"Time Is Of The Essence" was nominated for the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Jazz Instrumental Album by an Individual or Group and "Outrance" was nominated for Best Jazz Instrumental Solo.Tenor saxophone master Michael Brecker has shared the stage and studio with most every major drummer in modern music at one time or another. It was three very special stick-slingers, however, that Brecker chose to feature on TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE: the fiery Jeff "Tain" Watts, the inventive Bill Stewart, and the incomparable powerhouse Elvin Jones. Along with Brecker's muscular wail, guitar legend Pat Metheny and organ wizard Larry Goldings offer some stunning musical vehicles for these three outstanding percussionists…….

Michael Haneke’s brilliant follow up to his critically acclaimed 'The Piano Teacher', which won the Grand Prix, Best Actress and Best Actor awards at Cannes in 2001, was presented at this year’s Cannes Festival, where it screened out of competition (Patrice Chéreau, the president of this year’s jury, stars in the film which made TIME OF THE WOLF ineligible for any award). Taking its title from Codex Regius, an ancient Germanic poem which describes the time before the ‘Ragnarok’ the end of the world, TIME OF THE WOLF is a dark and brutally compelling apocalyptic drama. Reuniting Haneke with Isabelle Huppert, his award-winning star from 'The Piano Teacher', TIME OF THE WOLF brings together an impressive ensemble cast, including the French speaking talents of Patrice Chéreau, Béatrice Dalle, Olivier Gourmet and Serge Riaboukine.

Musical careers have as many different beginnings as there are musical instruments, and probably a lot more. Some folks fall into it organically; some have an epiphany, perhaps while listening to an iconic recording; some are set on the path by a chance encounter; and for others, it’s as if pieces of a puzzle fall gradually into place, guiding them inexorably to their life’s purpose. Michael Brant DeMaria is one such person.

Since releasing his debut solo piano album in 2008, Michael Logozar has quickly become a favorite in the contemporary instrumental piano scene. Michael puts his own unique style on the genre with heart-tugging melodies and rich improvisations with a rare level of artistry and emotion. Classically trained from childhood, Michael spent time recording and producing other artists before deciding to share his own brand of contemporary piano music with the world.

Album is part of this series because of later p-funker Ronald Dunbar's participation.

' A sublime bit of east coast soul and the only full album ever cut by this heavenly-voiced trio! The group have a sound to rival the best of their contemporaries on the harmony soul scene, one that floats along on a light pillow of strings and soul, with just the right amount of heavier touches to give the record a bit more of the HDH depth. The falsetto bits are especially nice drifting out in front of the deeper vocals and the whole thing’s got a solidness that should have made these guys huge. These brothers from St. Louis are the Delfonics of the Mid-West. If you like the style of male vocals from the ’70s, this is a must download. This is a @320 vinyl rip of my original Buddah records with covers.' nikos@funkmysoul

The U.K. collection The Very Best of Michael Bolton – initially released in 2005, repackaged as a slide pack in 2007 – is a good overview of the singer's peak years, containing all the big hits except "Love Is a Wonderful Thing" (only natural, considering the lawsuit surrounding the song) in a 17-track compilation that should give most listeners all the Bolton they need.

So this is where we find our hero in 2003. Dropped from his major label and absent his trademark flowing golden locks, Vintage presents his fans with yet another set of standout ballads and standards done only the way the Bolton can. Kicking out the jams early on with "The Very Thought of You," the tone is set right away for the album as a perfect musical accompaniment to a romantic dinner. The smooth, sultry tone is brought to a rousing climax with his re-interpretation of Etta James' classic "At Last." The fun continues onward with "Daddy's Little Girl," which was featured prominently in an ad campaign. Vintage closes with the potent but loaded question of "What Are You Doing the Rest of Your Life?," a stunning finish to an album sure to appease even the most loyal of his fans.

Michael released "Dragonfly Summer after a three year hiatus. What a wonderful return. The opener "Coming To Life" is an upbeat tune where Michael seems like he's singing about the start of this album itself. All of the songs are winners, I sometimes wonder what the outtakes are like, given the overall quality of the songs here. "Soul Mate" not only turned me on to Jeff Lorber, but also introduced me to Eric Benet, he's singing the harmony vocal. Not only is Michael talented, but the people he surrounds himself with, wow! The title track is fun, "Monk's New Tune" is about as late night jazz as Michael gets. "I Love Lucy" is that "I Love Lucy," the only cover Michael has recorded, save for a couple Christmas songs. The song is transformed from a Cuban lounge style to a romantic Brazilian influenced love song, the orchestration is glorious. "Practice Makes Perfect" is fun, "String Of Pearls" is a beautiful song, moving at a nice tempo featuring accoustic guitar and a woodwind solo.
